Dropping engine and hoist used.

Dropping engine and hoist used.
I am to the point of dropping the cross-member and I need an engine hoist to continue. However, I'm curious if the legs that stick out on front of folding 2-ton/3-ton hoists would get in the way of the engine as it's being lowered. Trying to return a hoist doesn't sound like fun.
As far as renting goes I have no idea where to start and, with the cost of a generic hoist only being around $180 I could buy one and sell it for $100 in 6 months when I'm done ;P

Auto Zone will loan you a hoist. True, you pay a large deposit up front but they give it back when you return the hoist. I don't know if you have Auto Zones in Wash. but try your major parts houses, they may have the same deal.

Here's a thought
I made a nice support out of 4x4's and some chain. Works great and takes about an hour to construct if you have some simple tools. A trip to Home Depot is all you need.
Good luck!
